Frequently asked questions

Does MedReception store patient data in Canada?

We offer Canadian data residency options for practices subject to provincial privacy frameworks. Discuss your specific requirements with our compliance team to confirm deployment options.

How does the system handle PIPEDA consent requirements?

The AI captures consent and communication preferences during the call, and returns a structured summary for staff to document in the patient record. This creates an audit trail of consent as required by PIPEDA.

Which Canadian EMRs does MedReception integrate with?

We integrate with Accuro, OSCAR EMR, Telus Health, and other Canadian systems. Appointment bookings, new patient creation, and demographics sync directly to the chart; clinical notes are returned as structured summaries for staff review and filing.

Can the system handle bilingual (French/English) calls?

Yes. The AI can conduct intake and scheduling in French or English, and can transfer to bilingual staff if needed. Intake summaries are structured for easy EMR entry in either language.

How does this compare to hiring a remote answering service?

Unlike remote services, AI reception never requires moving patient data outside Canadian borders. Calls are answered immediately, 24/7, with no wait; intake and triage are instant; and key data syncs directly to your EMR while clinical summaries are returned for staff review.
